Roberts 36 EXCEPTIONAL CENTRE COCKPIT CRUISING YACHT


Bruce Roberts is celebrated for his robust, seaworthy designs, many of which have proven themselves in global circumnavigations. The Roberts 36 Centre Cockpit is a prime example of his work, combining high volume and exceptional headroom (a remarkable 205cm in the saloon!) with an impressive aft cabin and a safe, comfortable centre cockpit ideal for extended cruising. Constructed of solid hand-laid fiberglass, "Trim" is an outstanding example of this design. With a stunning Tasmanian Myrtle fit-out that has to be seen to be full appreciated, and an extensive inventory of quality cruising equipment, this impressive vessel turns heads where ever it pulls into port. Fastidiously maintained by current experienced owners since 2015, this vessel has been extensively upgraded including STANDING RIGGING REPLACED AND NEW FURLER INSTALLED 2016,2 X LITHIUM BATTERIES WITH VICTRON SMART CHARGER INSTALLED 2021, NEW NOVACOOL FRIDGE SYSTEM 2019,2016 MUIR ELECTRIC ANCHOR WINCH INSTALLED, plus its fitted with a VETUS BOW THRUSTER!

Stepping inside, the Myrtle fit-out exudes classic charm, creating a warm and inviting ambience. The spacious saloon features a large dinette with seating for six on neatly upholstered settees, offering an ideal space to relax and unwind. A diesel heater ensures year-round comfort. To starboard, the well-appointed U-shaped galley is perfect for use at sea, complete with a front and top-loading fridge/freezer, four-burner gas stove, gas wall oven, stainless steel sink with pressurised fresh water, and ample storage for extended cruising. Accommodation aboard "Trim" is exceptional, making it ideal for cruising with family and friends. Aft, the impressive master suite includes a generous double berth and an ensuite with a manual toilet and vanity. Forward, the second private cabin features a double V-berth and adjacent bathroom with a composting toilet (compliant with holding tank requirements). A single settee berth in the saloon provides extra accommodation when needed.

On deck, the deep, safe cockpit is well protected by a hard dodger and can be fully enclosed with pram-style canvas covers and clear inserts. Set up for easy shorthanded sailing, it includes a Raymarine autopilot, furling headsail, mainsail in a boom bag with lazy jacks, all lines led back to the cockpit, and the Vetus Bow Thruster for stress-free berthing. Extensively cruised by its current owners, the yacht is equipped with a Highfield 2.9m tender, stainless steel dinghy davits, duckboard for easy stern access, BBQ, and quality anchoring gear.

Powered by a reliable 40HP Volvo Penta engine with only 1150 hours on the clock, "Trim" cruises comfortably at 6 knots while consuming just 2.5 LPH, thanks to its Autostream feathering prop.

With gleaming topsides, an exceptional interior, and true offshore capability, this yacht is ready to make your sailing dreams a reality. Sure to impress upon inspection, this is an opportunity not to be missed. For more information, please contact Jo Breen on or Jack Allison on .
